The front sight has a way to adjust elevation but did not come with the tool, were can I get one?

any 5.56/.223 round can be used, as well as a nail. Look for M4 front sight post tool on amazon if you want the actual item.

I am not sure what type you have, if it is a hexagon shaped screw it would require an allen wrench, you can buy them in sets but more than likely your sights could be made in a foreign country which means possibly metric not SAE. I have looked carefully at the sight from what I see there is no elevation adjustment but I can only see one side.

An AR sight tool will do the trick. Your local LGS should have one, or look up AR 15 sight tool on amazon. A cheap plastic one can be had for a couple dollars.

Almost all websites that sell ar assessories sell them as ar front site tool you can use a small pin punch in a pinch that what I used for years

You will need to modify the sight tool. If you have a dremel it will be an easy modification.

No, it does not include the front sight tool. Also, I found it to be EXTREMELY small. The picture is deceiving. I sent mine back and bought Tru-Glows for my Glock. Hope this helps. This sight is useless in my opinion.

This is the rear sight which adjust Windage. To adjust elevation that is doneon the front sight

Not sure if you are serious or trolling. If it shoot consistently 2" too high. Its already zeroed. Just aim two inches lower and you're good. There is a tiny pin hole you insert the provided tool to adjust the elevation as needed.You gotta be trolling since you wrote 2" haha.

There are a number of heights offered. The height you need for front sight depends on, inter alia, what you have as a rear sight.

The pin on the spring that captures the sight is longer than the stock one. Make sure you use the one that came with it. It has a double function, after you get the right height just press the captured pin down a little bit and you can rotate the Tritium to the front with out changing your elevation. I hope this helps

For the front sight you will need a front sight tool, and that is something you will have to buy. As for the rear, i had to flip it over with a screwdriver.

Normally yes, but it doesn't exist on this model! The picture is NOT of the model listed. This model is just windage and elevation and any fine adjustment will be on the ocular end.

I have a standard front sight but I replaced the post with a tritium filled one from meprolight. Just make sure whichever one you pick that it is adjustable for elevation as this rear sight only adjusts for windage and distance.

yes - just make sure you have the right tool - there is one for straight sided sights and one for angled sights.

The adjusting screw is slotted. You will need a something flat like a flat-blade screwdriver or multi-tool. I just tried a dime and it didn't work. It clicks easy. I really like the sights.

As others have said, it's a piece of cake if you have the right tools, but the right tool for the rear sight (called a "sight pusher"). I have one but it cost me well over $100. You can also use a hammer and punch, as long as the punch is made out of something that will not damage the slide, but that takes a while and is a bit of a pain. Unless you are a chronic gun tinkerer like me, I think that taking it to a gunsmith is the way to go.

I was able to use the standard sighting tool without any issues. I purchased this too from amazon as well. We appear to have purchased identical sights so the standard sighting tool should work.

I suppose you could but you'd have to practice and adjust your sight picture to compensate for the elevation of the rail. I was given a couple of red dot sights to use but you can buy them cheap on Amazon...around $20.

Hello it is hard to see there is very fine screw with flat hexagon type head this insets into the very tiny screw this is the bottom end of the sight. The answer is yes but some front sights are compressed on. The both tools are a good job. I recommend.

It did not come with that adjustment tool. You have to buy it separately. I ordered it at the same time as the rotor head, and paid $3.25 for it. Hope this helps, Frank
